Help Keep Our City Vibrant and Enhance Its Culture and Reputation

The Gig Harbor Film Festival has served our community for eleven years and has gained a reputation for world class film programming and unmatched hospitality.  In September of 2018, we earned a “Top 100 Best Reviewed Film Festivals” ranking on FilmFreeway, the industry’s online resource for filmmakers and festival-goers. This ranking is a testament to our worldwide appeal as a destination film event, and the pride and support for our organization locally and we have retained that ranking for 2019, 2020, and 2021.

We invite you to take advantage of our growing popularity and visibility by becoming an official sponsor.  As a sponsor of the Gig Harbor Film Festival, you can support our community and enhance our culture and reputation while fulfilling your company’s marketing, public relations, and community outreach goals.  Please take a moment to consider the enclosed sponsorship package that outlines your options and benefits, all of which can be tailored to your unique marketing needs.  Please do not hesitate to contact us if we offer any help in choosing the opportunity that suits you best.
